Savea's first day of Kindergarten

Well, it's official. Savea just started his first day of his next 13 years. WOW! He was so cute this morning. He was so excited to wear his backpack. At his school, parents are allowed to visit and eat lunch with their kids. I asked Savea if he wanted me to come and eat lunch with him today. His reply, "Nooooo MOOOOM (with a smirk on his face)." He is now a big boy who wants to eat with his friends. He doesn't need me to help him with his lunch (tear falling down face). Although, he still wanted to hold my hand as we were walking him to his class. It's hard giving them their independence. Like Michelle said in her post, the mother hen comes out and you don't want to let them go. You want to protect them always. I actually didn't cry today. I was surprised! I thought I would. My emotions came out when we met his teacher last week. I came home and broke down for pretty much the rest of the day. I was a mess. That was my rough day. I'll post what he thought of his first day after we pick him up.

I love Savea so much and I am so proud of him. He is truly our little miracle.

We let Savea pick out his outfit for his first day. Typical boy... he picked the shirt with a snake on it. I love it!! I would have picked out his handsome button down shirt, but the decision wasn't mine. :)
Backpack on and ready to go!
This is the hallway on his way to his classroom. We had to line up outside of his classroom and wait for his teacher to let us in. His teacher is Mrs. Hinsz.
Proud Momma!!

So grown up!
He looks a little worried in this picture. I think it finally hit him. :)
